A Taste of Blood Wine by Freda Warrington. 9 wishes for the paperback. The back 16 pages were bumped so there are very small tears in a few pages. It does smell of cigarette smoke, but I can't judge how strong the smell is with my poor sense of smell. PM me if interested. Thanks for looking.

***Taken - thanks!***

I have a brand new copy of Top Secret Twenty-One, by Janet Evanovich (WL 589) available for one credit.  There's a small stain on pg. 310 (It actually might not even be a stain - it was on the page when I turned it, and I can't tell if it's just part of the printing or an actual stain, though an eraser wouldn't remove it.  I don't want to chance getting a RWAP, so I'm offering it here for a credit instead).  If interested, please pm me...

Thanks!
